How would you descirbe your style in 3 words?
Understated, comfortable and timeless.
In fashion and interior design, where do you not compromise?
Neither. I am in for the long run when it comes to both fashion and interiors. Quality over quantity always and less but better.
Name a piece of clothing that defines your style the most.
At the moment (or the last couple of years….) it is probably any of my leather coats which I mostly wear together with denims, a cashmere crew and ballet flats. Chic and comfy at the same time.
How do you interpret sustainable practices in relation to fashion, arts, and interior design?
I try to avoid trends as much as possible, for me style and personality are so much more interesting than the latest look/interior trend etc. It is about finding out who you are and then build from that instead of reinventing the wheel every third year. I have my uniform. I cherish my pieces (both my wardrobe and my interiors) and buying into pieces that will work depending on where I live and when. I am not that person who redecorate the house just because it is fun and I am bored. Would never do that. When I need to clean out some things I am either gifting them to any of my daughters, my sister or the neighbors (in London you put the things you don’t want anymore outside your house and it will always be collected by someone). I am also selling the pieces I don’t need/want on Vestiaire Collective. When it comes to interiors I am mixing new with vintage.
How have the scenes of fashion, art and interior design transformed over time according to you?
Thanks to social media it has been easier for everyone to be a part of the fashion/art/interior scene. It is easy to find inspiration nowadays and and it is not only kept for the insiders. But the downside with this is that a lot looks the same…which is boring.
